Runaways #10

• Will the Runaways take down a middle-schooler to save two of their own? • Scratch that--do they even stand a chance against a near-immortal created by one of the MU's most fabulous villains (making a guest appearance)? • In the aftermath, a fan-favorite relationship will end FOREVER! Rated T+

Despite skimming over some of the ethical issues in RUNAWAYS #10, Rainbow Rowell and Kris Anka have crafted one of the best stories in the series yet. With a well-paced plot dealing with real human issues, as well as some fantastic characterization, this is a must read for comic fans. Read Full Review

Runaways is one of my favorite comics because of the stellar writing. Rowell and her creative team are clearly having so much fun with this book, which is just off-kilter enough from usual superheroics as to be something truly unique and special. Read Full Review

Writer Rainbow Rowell and artist Kris Anka play up teenage angst with superhero action magnificently here - while the balance between the team is a little pushed in favor of Molly and Karolina, there's so many great beats to this issue that it's hard to fault the creative team Read Full Review

Runaways #10 I would say was the strongest in terms of drama. Credit where it is due that when it comes to Runaways, no matter what they do or get themselves into, you always feel engaged on some level. Read Full Review

This was a really entertaining issue of Runaways and Kris “The Facial Expression Gawd' Anka is such a huge reason for that! No matter what the topic is, or how ridiculous the conversation gets, the man knows precisely how each and every character should be reacting. The eyebrow raises, contorted mouths, pride filled triumphs and feelings of sheer heartbreak are evident in all of his work. It's quite remarkable. Of course, he is working off the incredible story that Rainbow Rowell has bestowed upon us. Where can Runaways go wrong right now? Read Full Review

The team finally figures out what's happened and confronts Abbie to put everything right. It's a great story, but it has an audacious and potentially-confusing structure. The emotional climax comes at the start, so you're likely to still be drained when the plot resolves at the end. There's a little twist of heartbreak to the final page, too. Not exactly a fun read, but a moving one.
